Default Why do Australian police keep cars for such a short time?

I've noticed that there are hardly any police cars over 3 years old in Australia. In the USA, the average age is more like 10 years, with some cars even exceeding 15 years of age (though this is rare).

If you buy a brand-new cop car and sell it within a few years, you're losing an enormous amount of money, versus keeping that car for 10 years or so.

What's the logic here?
